This Is What A Duchess Looks Like

Rex Okpodu alerts me to the fact that the 85-year-old Duchess of Alba (pictured) is getting married today in Seville, Spain. Her betrothed is a civil servant 24 years her junior. The Duchess – whose full name is Maria del Rosario Cayetana Alfonsa Victoria Eugenia Francisca Fitz-James Stuart y de Silva – has more titles recognized by an existing government than any other noble. She has wealth to match, with estates, palaces and treasures including art masterpieces estimated to be worth up to 3.5bn euros ($4.7bn). Oh, and by the way, do you think the Duchess has ever had plastic surgery? My God! Why hasn’t Pedro Almodovar put her in a movie?
